Huang Que'er saw that the fight on the tree was almost over, and arranged for her younger siblings: "Come, put all the fungi in one basket, and set aside two baskets for chestnuts, otherwise the next person will not be able to carry them." ”

The three of them were busy and turned upside down.

When the basket was emptied, Huang Yuan was assigned to search for chestnuts among the fallen leaves under the tree, because some of the thorn balls exploded when they were ripe, and the chestnuts inside fell out; She and Oriole peel the ball with scissors.

Xia Sheng was fast, and after hitting all the thorn balls he could reach, he went down the tree.

He saw that Huang Que was peeling chestnuts, and hurriedly said, "I'll come." ”

Grab the scissors and start peeling.

Huang Que ran out of tools and couldn't be idle, so he pinched an exploding spike ball with his hand, and carefully broke the crack to take the chestnut. was concentrating, was seen by Xia Sheng, and hurriedly said, "How do you use your hands?" ”

Huang Que'er was so frightened that her hand shook and she was pricked in the finger by the thorn on the thorn ball.

Xia Sheng saw blood coming out of her index finger, he was distressed and angry, and he held the hand and stuffed it into his mouth and sucked it. After spitting a few mouthfuls of blood, he called Huang Li to take medicine and cotton cloth to bandage it. While busy, he blamed her for being careless. In his meaning, if he hadn't followed him today, Huang Que'er might have been injured all over his body.

He only cared about nagging, and suddenly felt that he hadn't heard Huang Que'er speak for a long time, thinking that she was angry, or crying in pain, and hurriedly raised his eyes to look at her. But I saw that the girl's cheeks were slightly red, her eyes were moist, and her lips were bright and comparable to the hawthorn she had eaten before.

He suddenly half-froze and looked at her stupidly.

There seemed to be a kind of bewitchment, prompting him to slowly approach the "hawthorn".

Huang Que looked at the rough cheeks that were close at hand. Becoming more and more shy, she pushed him. Whispered, "What do you do?" so that people can see what they say. Also, how can I be as stupid as you say? I used to go up the mountain a lot. No, it's all right. Just what you're fuss about! ”

Xia Sheng woke up in embarrassment, and hurriedly shouted, "Huang Li, why don't you bring it yet?" ”

Huang Li hurriedly said: "It's coming, it's coming." The thing was not in my basket, it was brought by the second sister, and I flipped through it for a long time. Eldest sister, what's the injury? I'll see. ”

As he spoke, he ran over to see Huang Que'er's injury.

Xia Sheng showed her the fingers of the yellow finch he was holding.

Huang Li frowned and said suspiciously, "This ...... Where's the injury? ”

In her eyes. The eldest sister's fingers are round and clean, and there is nothing!

Xia Sheng was dissatisfied with her negligence, and said, "On the finger, I was stabbed!" ”

While dragging the white muslin cloth on her hand, as well as medicine, and bandaging Huang Que'er, she also complained that Huang Li didn't feel sorry for her eldest sister and only cared about herself.

Huang Que'er blushed when she heard this, but she couldn't stop him.

How could Huang Li be willing to accept this grievance. Immediately shouted: "Is it an injury if you stab it?" I've been poked several times. Brother Xia Sheng, you are so eccentric! The eldest sister's hand is a hand, my hand is not a hand, it is a chicken paw, which can be stepped on all over the ground casually. Right? ”

Xia Sheng shook his hand and looked at his sister-in-law with some disbelief.

Huang Que was even more ashamed, and wanted to lower her head to her chest.

Or Huang Yuan. Blushing, he ran over and pulled the ignorant little sister away. said: "Come, show my brother." Well. Also wash with water, and put some medicine on it safely. ”

Saying that, I was very careful to help her get it.

Just now he saw Xia Sheng and Huang Que'er in love, his heart was touched, and he couldn't bear to disturb it, so he deliberately pretended not to see it, and turned his back and left. Who knew that Huang Li's mouth was unforgiving, and he actually competed with the eldest sister for favor.

Huang Li was satisfied, and when he was done, he said to Xia Sheng stupidly: "It's better to be your own brother." Brother-in-law is brother-in-law, when I didn't marry the eldest sister, it was like this, and when I married the eldest sister home, I still expect you to take care of my little sister-in-law? Hmph, I'm dreaming! ”

Huang Que was startled, and suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly shouted: "Huang Li! ”

turned to Xia Sheng again, his eyes were not without complaints.

Xia Sheng didn't expect Huang Li to say this, and he was stunned.

Huang Yuan hurriedly said: "Huang Li, don't talk nonsense!" Brother Xia Sheng didn't know that you poked your hand again. Come on, let's get chestnuts. ”

Pull her and leave.

When he turned his face, he saw the cuckoo jumping down from the tree.

He happily stepped forward and asked, "Are you done fighting?" ”

The cuckoo nodded, glanced at the yellow bird, and then at him.

Huang Yuan smiled at her, his eyes were bright and meaningful.

They are no better than Huang Li, so they can naturally understand Xia Sheng's feelings for Huang Queer.

The cuckoo had already seen the following situation in the tree, so he said to Huang Li: "Huang Li, taking care of the eldest sister is the responsibility of Brother Xia Sheng's life. You will naturally have someone to take care of in the future, what are you afraid of. Besides, it is better to ask for others than for yourself, and don't always count on others. ”

Huang Li snorted and muttered, "Who counted on him!" ”

Du Juan turned to Xia Sheng again and said with a smile: "Brother Xia Sheng, we don't ask you to do anything to the Huang family in the future, but you must be good to the eldest sister, just like the eldest uncle is to his aunt." Do you want to remember? ”

Xia Sheng inadvertently offended his sister-in-law, and was depressed, and said angrily when he heard the words: "You still need to say this!" Not only my father, but also me, which man in our Lin family is not good to his daughter-in-law? You don't have eyesight! ”

Huang Que'er has been maintained by the cuckoo since she was a child, and when she solemnly warned Xia Sheng, her eye sockets were hot and she felt spicy; Suddenly, I heard Xia Sheng say "no eyesight", hurriedly smashed him, and said in a low voice: "Why do you say this again?" ”

Xia Sheng puffed out his mouth and was silent.

Du Juan didn't want to argue, so he turned his face and asked Huang Yuan, "How much did you pick up?" ”

Huang Yuan said: "Not much." Many of them are empty shells, and the fruits in them are eaten by squirrels. ”

Cuckoo said: "It's all like this. That's a good thing to have. ”

After speaking, he and Huang Li used a stick to put the chestnut thorn ball together.

By the time Qiusheng and Huang Xiaobao came over with a few chickens and rabbits, Du Juan and the others had already finished cleaning up the chestnuts, and it was already past noon. Huang Li shouted again and again that he was hungry and wanted to get food.

The cuckoo looked around and said, "There is no water here, how can you get it?" ”

Qiusheng said: "I have been to this mountain. Turning around, there was a waterfall on the mountainside. Let's go there. It's also convenient to go down the mountain from that side after eating. ”

When they heard this, they followed him.

When I arrived at the place, it was really a good place: there was a large woodland of half an acre in the middle of the mountainside, and a pool of water in it was clear, and some iron pine trees were scattered around, and the grass was green.

It is that the water is dry in autumn and winter, and only one flowing spring is left in the waterfall on the cliff wall, which is silvery white, and hangs down like a practice. According to Qiusheng, it is so wide in April and May, and this half of the mountain wall is full of water.

The cuckoo said excitedly: "Come back in April and May next year." ”

Huang Yuan smiled at her and said, "This is also very good." ”

While happily stepping forward, he squatted on the edge of the pool to get water.

I took a handful of water to wash my face, and then took a sip of water in another place, I was very surprised, and I said to the cuckoo: "This water is very sweet!" Come and have a taste. ”

Huang Xiaobao replied, "Really? ”

Ran over first and crouched down beside him.

The cuckoo was about to go, when he heard the yellow bird exclaim, "Look over there, it's Wasp Ridge!" ”

Everyone looked at the opposite side in the direction of her finger: the clouds and mist were drifting, looming, wasn't it Wasp Ridge! Under the sun, the mountain path adjacent to the cliff stretches like a long snake, winding around the mountain. With the cliff on the top of the mountain, the mountain is sparse and falling, and all kinds of strong pines of all kinds are really a good scene!

It's sunny over there, and it's San'in over there.

Huang Yuan exclaimed: "It's really amazing! If the fog had been a little clearer, it would have been seen more clearly. ”

Huang Li clapped his hands and said, "The fog has dispersed. Brother, look, the wind blows the clouds and mist that way. Oops, I see people on the road! Oops, they're crawling! Hahaha, so daring! ”

Huang Xiaobao hurriedly said: "Where is it, where is it?" I didn't see it. ”

The cuckoo secretly praised the little girl's good eyes, and tried her best to stare at the past.

Sure enough, another burst of clouds and mist was swept away by the wind, and under the sun, several small figures were clearly visible on the Wasp Ridge mountain road in the distance, not standing and walking, but crawling on the ground.

She lost her voice and said, "Really! ”

Huang Yuan, Qiusheng and others also took a closer look.

When they saw it clearly, they couldn't help but laugh.

Huang Xiaobao smiled at Huang Yuan and said, "Finally, someone is worse than you." You've come here. ”

Huang Yuan palpitated and said: "Don't laugh at people!" That road can be called a natural danger, and those of you who often climb the mountain naturally don't think so; Those who walk for the first time will be scared if they don't fall to their death. They do the same: keep their eyes on the road, and the closer they get to the road, the more grounded they feel. When I walked with you that day, I occasionally glanced at the abyss next to me, and I felt like I was stepping into the air, as if I was no longer on the road, and was falling into the abyss. ”

Huang Que'er didn't walk over, and when she heard Huang Yuan say it so vividly, she unconsciously shrank her body and asked Du Juan in a low voice, "Is it really difficult to walk?" ”

The cuckoo nodded and said, "If you don't have the guts, don't go, otherwise you'll die." Grandpa carried it back and forth last time. I was scared to walk back, but I got used to it very quickly. ”

Everyone looked at each other and discussed, but Xia Sheng said: "The housekeeper is standing or lying on his stomach!" They are so hungry that their chests are pressed against their backs, and they still don't get anything to eat, and they still have the leisure to say 'wonderful' and 'eight unique'. ”

When Huang Que'er heard him say this, she didn't care about it, and hurriedly turned out a casserole from the back basket and said to him, "I'll cook soup for you to drink." So he went to the waterhole and scooped up the water.

Everyone put down their bags, some collected firewood, some killed game, and the cuckoo sisters set up the casserole and washed the mushrooms to make soup.

After a while, the fragrance wafted from the mountains.

The roast chicken was also buried, the rabbit was also roasted on the fire, and while waiting, everyone couldn't help but pay attention to the other side, busy for a while, and then took another look, saying "still there" and "still climbing" and other words.

Huang Li suddenly said, "Who is this?" The people in our village will definitely not be like this. People outside, don't come if you don't dare to come in, why do you want to climb in? ”

Everyone looked at each other as if they had just remembered this question.

Huang Xiaobao said: "What's the matter with him? ”

The cuckoo took a closer look again, shook his head and said, "That's not right. If it's really important, wouldn't it be enough to ask someone to bring in a letter. Do you see clearly? There were three people in total, the one in front always stood up, and the two people in the back kept crawling. ”

Everyone listened and looked carefully, and sure enough, it was so.

Huang Yuan suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart, but when he thought about it, it was nothing.

He laughed at the last time he was scared. (To be continued......)
